Everyone seems to make it sound like you need to reinstall Mandrake and
install it with the Developer option. This is NOT the case. I would
use KFM and KPackage to find the library RPM's you need to install to
put those development library files on your hard drive. KPackage has a
tab for listing the files in the RPM before you select to install it.
Try different lib*.rpm files until you've got the development packages
installed that you need.
